My friend Tina and I were in a QuikTrip trying to decide what kind of soda to get. The girl working there walked behind us saying to the other girl working ,"Did Steve tell you that?". I said out loud "where did you get that preposterous notion?".

We did also go to a hallmark store and saw a huge row of greeting cards with songs in them. I picked one up and asked where do they put the speakers.

I tend to sketch what's on my mind on whatever bit of paper that's near me, so I found myself illustrating the lyrics 'All the ladies with your babies make your babies shake their booties yeah' or something similar. It looks kind of like child abuse, in a fun way.

Well hopefully you are teaching 5 year olds then I know of kids as young as 10 who know of the Conchords and have seen those HBO One Night Stand clips. And have some of their music. And they know what it refers to

YouTube, Facebook, TheArseOfTheInter... I mean MySpace, Bebo pages with mentions, makes for the Conchords being easy to stumble across now.

I have the best husband in the world. Not only does he tolerate my undying love for FotC, but he made my birthday a "Very Flight of the Conchords" birthday (his words). I woke up and there was a red delicious apple and a banana on the bed side table. He gave me a map of New York, a roll of tape, some business socks, the movie Labyrinth, a croissant and soup for lunch, a bag of very expensive mixed nuts, a beer, a map of New Zealand, and we had kabobs for dinner. My kids got me a magic card that has a robot on the front and plays Mr. Roboto, and he wrote:

"This card has one funtion--to wish you a Happy Birthday! And I guess the second one is to stop wishing you a Happy Birthday at this point (he drew a picture of a card closing). It's kinda like a walkman. Hope you enjoyed your magic card".

Like I said I have the best husband ever. It was a very FotC birthday!
